I would like to use the Chapin Sprayer #6005 to spray Spray and Forget on my house in the ratio of 5 parts water to 1 part Spray and Forget. Will this work for this application?
It would be tough to translate an application ratio like that with any hose-end sprayer, including the Chapin 6005 Hose-End Sprayer. You would need to figure out how much total solution you need and then work backwards to get the correct amount of product for the total volume of water that you plan to use. The minimum amount of water that the Chapin Wet/Dry Hose-End Sprayer is designed to use on any application is 3 gallons. So if you had 3 gallons of water (384 ounces), then you would need 76.8 ounces of your concentrate using a 5:1 ratio, which is too much to fit into the reservoir of this sprayer. We would suggest using a hand pump sprayer such as the Chapin Premier 1 gallon Sprayer 21210XP so that you have more control over exactly how much solution and water you are using.
